We have about 90 routers at our branches and all have a dial backup modem
attached to the aux port.  At all of them I can access the modem using
reverse telnet except for the two locations with 2600 series routers; the
rest of the routers are 2520s.  Does the 2600 series have some extra
configuration that is required for reverse telnet to work correctly?  

Here is the configuration and the output from "show line 65":

On the two 2620 routers, I get the following error:  

RSHER#modem                                  
Trying modem (10.12.53.70, 2065)... Open     
                                             
[Connection to modem closed by foreign host] 

We've tried replacing cables and modems with no change.  Any other ideas?  I
thought reverse telnet was a no brainer, but this is really getting on my
nerves.  BTW, we use Motorola Premier 33.6 modems.

Thanks,
John
